I know at least a few iron workers who have been unemployed for at least 6 months now. Ed is pro-business. If business grows again, you may be employed again. Russ just does what Obama and Pelosi tell him to do. So if there following economic policies that don't work, how does giving thousands to a Democrate help you get a job when you go down to the union hall?

If you took out Russ'es special interest PAC money you would have outraised him by over $200K! And you're the challenger? Seems his supporters aren't that enthused about him. Well done. Ed,
